Here, the 'initial input' of a signal means a signal form during an initial period from a start point of the signal to a predetermined point, for example, a settling time.
Modifying the 'initial input' of a signal means an input shaping technique in which the signal shape during the initial period is transformed by calculation such as convolution in order to reduce the residual vibration at the input of the corresponding signal.
As described above, as the

For example, the resonance frequency determined by the inductance is captured or a basic physical quantity (displacement, acceleration, vibration, etc.) is measured from a sensor (not shown) during driving of the
The shaping signal may be a multi-step shaping signal having a plurality of steps or a toggle shaping signal having a toggle interval, and in particular attenuation may be applied so that the amplitude of the signal is gradually attenuated.
In this case, the above-described
Also, the shaping signal may be a newly formed convolution shaping signal by convoluting the two shaping signals.

FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C are waveform diagrams for explaining the operation principle of input shaping applied to FIG.
2A illustrates a method of shaping an input through the same-sized impulse train without considering attenuation, whereas FIGS. 2B and 2C illustrate a method of adjusting the size of an impulse train taking into account that vibration is reduced due to attenuation.
When the reference signal of (a) is applied to one input for high-speed operation in autofocus, a relatively large residual vibration occurs, and the fixing time becomes long.
At this time, if the impulse train as shown in (b) is convoluted with the reference signal of (a) as shown in FIG. 2A, the initial input of the reference signal is changed as shown in (c) The vibration can be canceled and the residual vibration can be reduced and the fixing time can be shortened.
In the case of FIG. 2A, the impulse train is obtained by assuming a non-damped vibration in which the damping is ignored, that is, when the damping ratio is zero (infinite vibration).
Assuming non-damped vibration, the amplitudes of the impulses are all the same and the time location of the impulses is obtained by the resonance frequency inherent to the
However, since the
If the magnitudes of the impulses are all given equal to each other without considering the attenuation as shown in FIG. 2A, the residual vibration reduction effect is limited. In some cases, the residual vibration may not be properly canceled and may be larger due to the initialized shape input.
Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the driving
FIGS. 2B and 2C illustrate an input shaping technique considering attenuation applicable to the embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 2B and 2C, when the impulse train to which the
FIGS. 3A through 3H are waveform diagrams illustrating a shaping signal generated according to an embodiment of the present invention, and show a multi-step shaping signal.
In one embodiment, the multi-step shaping signal is obtained by applying attenuation to a multi-step signal having a plurality of steps that gradually change from the target level to a multi-step signal shape in which the signal swing width of each step is gradually attenuated .
As described above, the
Specifically, when the vibration of the
In one embodiment, the
In this shaping signal, the phase of the multi-step shaping signal is delayed by " total phase / N " at each step with respect to the number of steps N. In consideration of attenuation, each step of the multi-step shaping signal is given a step- And the signal fluctuation width of each step is gradually attenuated.
Here, the total phase means the lowest phase to the maximum phase range in one cycle.
For example, when one cycle is 0 ° to 360 °, a phase delay occurs by 360 ° / N for each step.
Alternatively, the total phase may be defined as a constant multiple of 360 ° (integer times or a multiple of several times, for example, 360 ° × 1.2 times, 360 ° × 1.5 times, 360 ° × 2 times, ...) according to the embodiment.
3A to 3D show a case in which the target level is higher than the signal level at the start point and the signal level gradually increases to reach the target level at each step. Fig. 3A shows a two-step shaping signal, Figs. 3B and 3C show N (N is a natural number between 4 and 16), and FIG. 3D shows a curve-shaped shaping signal obtained by dividing N by the number of 16 or more and increasing the number of steps.
3A, when a two-step shaping signal is input to the
When the resonance period of the
And the phases of the respective steps are distributed such that the waveforms of the signals constituting the plurality of steps have a resonance period canceling each other.
3A, 3B and 3C, the number of steps N is 2, 4, and 8, respectively. Assuming that the target level of the control signal is A, the signal fluctuation width of each step is a i * (A / 2) , 2), b i * ( A / 4) (i = 1, 2, 3, 4), c i * (A / 8) (i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 )to be.
3A, the
Also, in consideration of attenuation, a stepwise attenuation value according to attenuation is given to each step of the two-step shaping signal, and the signal fluctuation width of each step is gradually attenuated to a 1 , a 2 .
3A, the
Further, in consideration of the damping vibration of the
FIGS. 3b-3d extend the principle of FIG. 3a with an N-step shaping signal having between 4 and 16 steps and a curve-shaped shaping signal having more than 16 steps.
3B and 3C, the
In the case of the 4-step shaping signal illustrated in FIG. 3B, the phases are constantly delayed in the first, second, third, and fourth step signals, for example, 0 °, 90 °, 180 °, The amplitude of the signal is gradually attenuated by the attenuation.
3C is an illustration of an 8-step shaping signal.
As shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, the shaping signal can be applied by further subdividing the step of FIG. 3A and applying a step-wise attenuation value according to the attenuation. Through the multi-step method, the vibration of the
This input shaping technique that refines each step of the shaping signal can be extended to a shaping signal that extends the number of steps to 16 or more and implements a curve type as shown in FIG. 3D.
The vibration characteristics are excellent in the order of 2-step < 4-step < 8-step < As the number of steps of the multi-step shaping signal increases, the amplitude of each sinusoidal waveform due to the resonance of the step signal becomes smaller. Therefore, even if an error occurs in the input shaping process, less vibration occurs.
In the case of performing curve type input shaping in FIG. 3D, the
At this time, the
Figs. 3E to 3H show the case where the target level is lower than the signal level at the starting point, Fig. 3E shows a two-step shaping signal, Fig. 3F and Fig. 3G show steps with N (N is a natural number between 4 and 16) FIG. 3H illustrates curve-shaped shaping signals obtained by expanding the number of steps by dividing N by the number of 16 or more.
When the
And the phases of the respective steps are distributed such that the waveforms of the signals constituting the plurality of steps have a resonance period canceling each other.
3E, the
Also, in consideration of attenuation, a stepwise attenuation value according to attenuation is given to each step of the two-step shaping signal, and the signal fluctuation width of each step is gradually attenuated to a 1 , a 2 .
In the case of FIGS. 3F and 3G, the
In the case of the 4-step shaping signal illustrated in FIG. 3F, the phase is constantly delayed in the first, second, third, and fourth step signals, for example, 0 °, 90 °, 180 °, The amplitude of the signal is gradually attenuated by the attenuation.
FIG. 3G is an example of an 8-step shaping signal, and has a form in which the signal fluctuation width in step units is gradually attenuated with attenuation.
FIG. 3H shows a curve shape in which the level is gradually changed by attenuating the signal fluctuation width of each step by giving a step-by-step attenuation value corresponding to the attenuation while expanding the number of steps of the multi-step shaping signal to 16 or more .
4A and 4B are waveform diagrams illustrating shaping signals generated according to another embodiment of the present invention.
In another embodiment, the toggle shaping signal is obtained by applying an attenuation to a toggle signal having one or more times of switching between two signal levels of a low level and a high level. The attenuation is applied so that the toggle signal form in which the signal fluctuation width of each edge is progressively attenuated .
The
In the toggle interval, the shaping signal is repeated one or more times from high to low, and attenuation is applied to gradually attenuate the signal swing of each toggle edge (rising edge and falling edge).
For example, in the case of Figure 4a the signal fluctuation width of each toggle edge d 1, d 2, d 3 attenuation is changed to, and the case of Figure 4b the signal fluctuation width of each toggle edges e 1, e 2, e 3, e 4 , and e 5 , respectively.
When the toggle shaping signal is applied, the fixation time is shortened as compared with the case where the attenuation is not taken into consideration, and the vibration of the

The
5 illustrates a case where a convolution shaping signal of a new type as shown in (c) is generated by convoluting the first shaping signal of (a) and the second shaping signal of (b).
Each step is applied for T vib / 2, and the signal size increases by a i * (A / 2) step by step. (B) A convolution shaping signal changing as shown in (c) can be obtained.
As such, the
The input generated by the convolution is obtained by convoluting the first shaping signal and the second shaping signal with each other, and may be various forms according to the convolution method.
Here, each of the first and second shaping signals is a signal in which attenuation is applied so that the amplitude of the signal is gradually attenuated. The signal includes a two-step shaping signal, a multi-step shaping signal having a plurality of steps A curve shaped shaping signal having more than 16 steps, a toggle shaping signal, and the like.
6A-8B are time response graphs of shaping signals in accordance with embodiments of the present invention.
6A is a time response when an input is shaped using a multi-step shaping signal without considering attenuation, and FIG. 6B is a time response when an input is shaped using a multi-step shaping signal considering attenuation.
FIG. 7A is a time response when the input is shaped using a toggle shaping signal that does not take attenuation, and FIG. 7B is a time response when the input is shaped using a toggle shaping signal considering attenuation.
8A is a time response when shaping an input using a convolution shaping signal without considering attenuation, and FIG. 8B is a time response when shaping an input using a convolution shaping signal considering attenuation.
Compared to the case of assuming the non-damped vibration of FIGS. 6A, 7A and 8A, when the damping vibrations of FIGS. 6B, 7B and 8B are assumed, the fixing time is short and the vibration characteristics It can be confirmed that it is excellent.
9A and 9B are sensitivity graphs of resonant frequency errors of shaping signals according to embodiments of the present invention.
FIG. 9A compares the sensitivity of the case where the attenuation is not taken into consideration (G10) and the case where the attenuation is considered according to the embodiment of the present invention (G20).
The relationship between the resonance frequency (F) and the error rate is as follows. Since the error rate curve G20 in the case of attenuation is lower than the error rate curve G10 in the case where the attenuation is not taken into consideration, It can be seen that the error rate characteristic is better when the signal is adjusted.
That is, if the shaping signal is adjusted in consideration of the attenuation, the error rate is small even when the resonance period is exceeded, and the residual vibration is less than the non-attenuation method.
9B is a graph showing a sensitivity graph according to the kind of shaping signals. The sensitivity characteristic of the toggle shaping signal G21, the multi-step shaping signal G22, and the convolution shaping signal G23, Respectively.
The shaping signals considering the attenuation can improve the residual vibration suppression performance compared with the case where the undamped vibration is assumed. Further, the type of the shaping signal can be selectively applied to the desired condition based on the sensitivity characteristic.
In the case of the convolution shaping signal, even if the signal is out of the resonance period as shown in the figure, the error rate due to vibration appears to be a very small value, so that the resonance can be canceled most insensitively to the error (see G23).
